Peter M. ten Klooster serves as Associate Professor in the Department of Psychology, Health & Technology at the University of Twente. His research integrates clinical psychology with health technology, focusing on mental health assessment in chronic disease contexts through innovative methodologies like experience sampling.
His core research interests include:
- Mental Health: Specializing in depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, and grief-related conditions
- Psychometrics: Developing ecological assessment tools such as the PGS-SEA scale for real-time symptom tracking
- Chronic Illness Psychology: Investigating rheumatoid arthritis impacts and long-term mental health consequences of conditions like COVID-19
- Positive Interventions: Exploring self-compassion and wellbeing-enhancing strategies in clinical and occupational settings
Recent publications (2025) reveal three dominant research trajectories: 1) Advancement of intensive longitudinal methods for mental health assessment, 2) Comparative effectiveness research in depression treatments, and 3) Economic evaluation of positive psychology interventions. His work consistently bridges clinical practice with technological innovation, particularly through mobile health applications and ecological momentary assessment.
Dr. ten Klooster has supervised 6 academic works including a University of Twente PhD thesis. His academic service includes editorial roles for Frontiers in Psychology (2021) and PLoS ONE (2018-2021), alongside frequent conference presentations on personalized mental healthcare approaches. Current activities involve co-creating mobile interventions for neurodivergent children's parents and developing idiographic models for stress-affect dynamics.
